Pipit – Artist Blog

We are very excited to introduce you to Charlotte Gower, one of the artists who will be showcasing their work at featured@ fair trader from September 1st to October 15th 2022.

Charlotte Gower

Charlotte Gower is the artist and designer behind Pipit. Originally from Holmfirth, Charlotte moved to Cardiff where she studied for her degree in Fine Art. After a decade in Wales she moved back to Yorkshire, residing in Sheffield, and then eventually moving back to Holmfirth where she created her ethical homewares and jewellery business.

Charlotte exhibits Pipit at craft fairs as well as being stocked in shops throughout Yorkshire and, with new collections coming out a few times a year, there is always something new to discover. Pipit’s current collection is based on Sheffield, one of Charlotte’s favourite cities. Its mix of natural beauty and industrial history is partly what makes it so special. It’s that past industry that forms the canvas to the city’s vibrant street art that has inspired the latest collection, with gradients of bold colour blocking offset with charcoals. The new collection is made from recycled cotton, sustainably sourced wood, recycled silver and natural paints; ethical as always.
